AC Milan Falls to Napoli, Manager Fonseca Maintains Title Hope

Posted : 30 October 2024

AC Milan's hopes of catching up to the Serie A leaders took a hit with a 2-0 defeat at home to Napoli on Tuesday, leaving them 11 points adrift in the standings. Although they have a game in hand, this latest loss marks their third in the league this season, forcing them to contend not only with Napoli but also with title rivals Inter Milan and Juventus.

 

 Manager Paulo Fonseca remains optimistic about Milan's title aspirations despite the setback, citing the team’s resilience amid player absences, including suspended stars Theo Hernandez and Tijjani Reijnders.

 

When asked if the Scudetto was still the goal, Fonseca expressed unwavering determination, noting that the team's performance showed promise. He pointed out that no team has won or lost the league after just nine games, emphasizing the importance of continuing their growth and securing results to remain competitive in the title race.

 

The coach's commitment to the team's development suggests that he believes in their potential to rebound and make a serious challenge.

 

Fonseca took responsibility for the defeat, particularly after the team conceded an early goal from Romelu Lukaku. He acknowledged the difficulties of starting a match on the back foot against a strong Napoli side but was pleased with how his players responded to the early setback.

 

 Despite the loss, he highlighted their ability to create chances and maintain a positive attitude on the field, showcasing the quality of football they played against a disciplined Napoli defense.
